11# 7 oz. fatty large mouth on a Zoom Horny toad (watermelon) August 2008 on West Lake Toho.

This bass was caught this year in August on West Lk Toho in Central Fl. (not far from where I live) My personal best bass EVER! I entered it in the B.A.S.S. lunker club and was approved for publication! 11lb 7oz FATTY !

Thanks for the welcome. My avatar bass weighed 11.7 ,one of my top three bass EVER!

BINGO !

After you lip a fish you can also place your other hand under it's belly, this helps to keep it calm. A smallmouths mouth is the same except for it's SMALLER ;D

I think confidence would come with each "style" of fishing, color of a lure or a different style lure. I have confidence in a buzzbait, but not the same amount of confidence with a devil horse. If I was throwing a black and blue senko, I would have more confidence in a junebug senko. I think it all comes down to personal preference.

Hi all ! I'm new here, thought I would try out this forum. I'm not new to "forums" but i'm new to this one. I'd like to learn as much as I can from you guys and it's also fun to chat with people all over the world. Especially about fishing. I'm posting in the "BassClubs" first because I did a search and didn't find my club. Palm Bay Bassmasters So I want to apologize now if my avatar is still to big, i'm workin' on it. That is a big ole' hawg in there she's hard to shrink down. I'm looking forward to chatting it up with you all and getting to know you. ;DMy name is Donnie and I'm a fishaholic ;D
